4 Months, 3 Weeks & 2 Days belongs to a larger project called Tales From The Golden Age - a subjective history of communism in Romania told through its urban legends. The project's aim is to talk about that period with no direct reference to communism but only through different stories focused on personal options in a time of misfortunes that people had to live like normal times. 4 Months, 3 Weeks & 2 Days is the first film of the series.

Laura (Belén Rueda) spent her childhood with six playmates in the Good Shepherd Orphanage before being adopted. 30 years later, now 37 years old, she returns with her husband Carlos (Fernando Cayo) and their 7-year-old son Simon (Roger Príncep) to buy the seaside orphanage and convert it into a home for five or six special children. A self-styled "social worker" (Montserrat Carulla) visits the house and Simon finds out that he is adopted and HIV-positive. Simon has six new invisible friends who can never grow up. One of them named Tomas, with a sack over his head, appears to abduct Simon from Laura. What does it take for Laura to bring back her boy?
